Investigation of G007-LK treatment in mouse and human melanoma cell lines

Group - 24

Introduction

  • WNT/β-catenin pathway -> disregulation in melanoma

  • G007LK -> decreases WNT/β-catenin signaling

  • Two data sets and two metadata sets (mouse and human)

  • Goal was to identify up and down regulated genes after G007LK treatment

Methods

Cleaning

  • How we cleaned the data and why

Augmentation

  • How we processed or data to prepare it for analysis
  • Why we did 0 handling and how
  • Why we did log2 fold expressions

Description (1)

  • Many zero expressions through cell lines in each of treatment

Description (2)

Results

Mouse gene expression analysis

  • Only 346 significantly regulated genes out of 39075
  • 0 handling making estimated treatment impact on expressions unsure.

Analysis of regulated Mouse genes across the 3 treatments

  • Approximately equal amounts of significantly regulated genes in each treatment

  • However, the overlap is very small

Discussion

The Human Analysis

  • PCA analysis across 18 human cell lines

Discussion

  • In our mouse model, the BVES gene appears to be the most significantly impacted.This gene contributes to regeneration processes

  • Our holistic investigation across mouse and human melanoma cell lines provided valuable insights into the influences of the studied compounds and G007.LK effects on their gene expression patterns

  • More extensive work is needed to fully understand the impact of the G007.LK in gene expression and cellular pathway across different melanoma cells
